Topic: I just observed some church people walking into a cafe.

They were all dressed up, white, rich, young, and beautiful. They sauntered and pranced in like they were superior to everyone else. Then, they all ordered these ridiculous tootie fruity drinks with complicated exceptions -- add this, hold this, make it just so, put whipped cream on it, etc., and they were not polite. I could not help but think about the first-century Christians: most poor, ragged, many slaves, many beaten, tortured, martyred. The contrast was not hard to notice. What do you think about this?

Minichan: vehemently anti-religion, until Depressionman is, at which point, Minichan defends Christianity.â„¢

You say you're a Christian. You can't sit on the fence; you either are or you aren't. Which is it?

I'm not against religion, I'm against religious people.

I just got my PhD in theology, and I for one think you're a stereotyping bigot.

Mexicans and blacks were almost a gurantee of me not getting a tip. I got most of my tips from white males in their late 20s to ealry 30s

I have TWO PhDs, one in Theology, and one in Divinity from Harvard. Thus, I win.

Where did I say that was my only degree? I have another PhD in Ancient Theology. I also got an MD from Harvard Medical school.
Did I mention I'm also a dean at Harvard?

Maybe they made big donations at the church.

That is impressive, Sir. However, I hold three PhDs each from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Stanford, three French doctorates form the Sorbonne, in a variety of subjects. I am also a Dean, and Department Chair, at each of those universities.
P.S. I have three MDs and three JDs.

I'm fairly sure the Sorbonne is formed by more than three French doctorates.

Pentecostals are notoriously bad tippers. They will leave a dollar, or some coins, or just nothing.

Yes. They believe they are God's chosen people, and better than all the other sinners, and so they do not have to tip. It is freaking annoying. They are rude, obnoxious, loud, messy, and do not tip.

You should just refuse them service because they don't tip, or just put the gratuity on their check and say it's a surcharge for their big party.

If you are waiting tables, there is not much you can do though. If you talk back, you will get fired.

Nothing is wring with waiting, and I do not wait tables. I just have extensive restaurant experience.

If you just let people walk all over you, figuratively speaking, they will continue to do it for the rest of your natural life. One day, you'll find yourself a middle-aged man sitting around, wondering why everybody was mean to you and why the world wasn't handed to you on a silver platter.
You can be the change, or you can be the wimp. Your choice.

You're complaining, but you aren't really doing anything about the problem. I guess the $64.000 question is this:
What are you going to do about it?
